EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of an ancient Egyptian obelisk still lying in the quarry of Assuan (Aswan), Egypt, in 1905. The image, taken by Underwood & Underwood as part of their series called "Egypt Through the Stereoscope" showcases the immense scale and intricate details of this ninety-two-foot monument. The granite quarries depicted here were a vital source for Egyptians seeking suitable stone for their architectural marvels. Located on the east bank of the Nile, just south of Assuan, these quarries played a crucial role in shaping Egypt's rich history. In this scene, a lone man stands beside a donkey near the colossal obelisk that lies buried within the quarry. The sheer size and weight of this monolithic structure are awe-inspiring; it serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and ancient engineering techniques. Through stereoscopic photography, viewers can experience an enhanced sense of depth and dimensionality, immersing themselves in this historical moment frozen in time. This print not only offers us a glimpse into Egypt's past but also highlights the significance of mining and industry during that era. With its meticulous composition and striking contrast between light and shadow, this photograph transports us back to early 20th-century Egypt—a country steeped in cultural heritage where humans harnessed nature's resources to create enduring monuments that continue to captivate our imagination today.
